Man sentenced to State Prison for unlawful surveillance

NORWICH – A man was ordered to serve an indeterminate sentence of one and a half to three years in the New York State Department of Corrections when the Chenango County Court convened for an afternoon session on Monday, Aug. 8.

Dustin C. Freeman, who now resides in Quincy, Massachusetts, appeared in court facing two counts of unlawful surveillance in the second degree, a class E felony; and dissemination of an unlawful surveillance image in the second degree, a class A misdemeanor.

His Mar., 2016, indictment alleges that Freeman used a cell phone to video record a female victim while she was undressed in her own bedroom at an apartment complex on Classic Street, in the Village of Sherburne, on a day in the Fall of 2014 for his own amusement or entertainment and degradation of the victim.
